  1. PC powering down by it self


    Since upgrading my PC from Windows 7 ultimate to Windows 10 Pro. my PC will randomly power down then restart automatically often. Any suggestions? I ruled out issues with the sleep mode. (now turned off)

    Self Help PC Troubleshooting Guides

    Hello, I'm brand new to your website. This is my first post here.

    I'm looking for some self help guides / tutorials for PC troubleshooting - new Custom Desktop Builds.

    1) Such as, dead Desktop Computer, no fans, no lights, no nothing....dead!

    2) Blank Monitor, but fans spin.

    3) Blank Monitor, suck in boot loop.

    Don't like reading long drawn out explanations; I like tutorials which get right to the point.

    Would prefer, by the numbers type format.

    Step 1: Swap PSU
    Step 2: Swap Monitor
    Step 3: R&R all Cable connections, make sure you haven't plugged the 8 pin power cable in backwards.

    Are there any PC troubleshooting guides like this on your website. Not sure, how to look them up here.

    Any assistance would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks ! *Smile

  3. Lost Power, now PC won't boot. Powers on and clicks.


    I had tried both of those steps. Neither worked. I have a replacement power supply on order. Should be here on Monday. Thanks for the suggestions.

    PC powering down by it self

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
